The 'major flaw' centers around a specific clause in the proposed IR legislation, which some critics argue could have far-reaching consequences. This clause, critics say, introduces ambiguity and potential conflicts in areas related to collective bargaining and industrial disputes.

At the heart of the debate is the balance between worker rights and the interests of businesses. While the ALP argues that the legislation is aimed at bolstering worker protections and increasing job security, opponents assert that it may inadvertently hinder economic growth and job creation.

One of the key concerns raised by experts is the potential impact on collective bargaining. The 'major flaw' could introduce complexities that hinder productive negotiations between workers and employers, potentially leading to prolonged disputes and disruptions in workplaces.
